He's listing Division I wins only as that is the only credential used by the selection committee.

Gotcha.

Skimming over some of the wins of the other teams on the 1/2 seed lines, a good amount of those aren't any more impressive than a D2 win. But alas.

Just for posterity, record vs. RPI Top 100 for top 2 lines (understanding RPI is flawed in itself, of course):

Arizona 8-0
Syracuse 10-0
Michigan St 7-1
Villanova 9-1
Wichita St 8-0
Wisconsin 8-2
Florida 5-2
SDSU 4-1

Wichita is pretty much on an even plane with everyone else right now in this regard. Problem is that everyone but SDSU will surpass Wichita in volume the next 2 months.

Nor does it get better when you slice it to record v. Top 50

I think we can remove Villanova from the top line.

It's funny how arbitrary the Top 50 wins are. If you slide it to Top 60, WSU improves to 4-0.

Only matters where everyone ends up at selection time.
